We Love Thee, Lord, and We Adore

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7561 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. We love Thee, Lord, and we adore; Now is Thine arm revealed: Thou art our strength, our heav’nly tower, Our bulwark and our shield. 2. We fly to our eternal rock, And find a sure defense; His holy name our lips invoke, And draw salvation thence. 3. When God, our leader, shines in arms, What mortal heart can bear The thunder of His loud alarms, The lightning of His spear? 4. He rides upon the wingèd wind, And angels in array In millions wait to know His mind, And swift as flames obey. 5. He speaks, and at His fierce rebuke Whole armies are dismayed; His voice, His frown, His angry look, Strikes all their courage dead. 6. He forms our generals for the field, With all their dreadful skill; Gives them His awful sword to wield, And makes their hearts of steel. 7. He arms our captains to the fight, Though there His name’s forgot; He girded Cyrus with His might, But Cyrus knew Him not. 8. Oft has the Lord whole nations blessed For His own church’s sake; The powers that give His people rest, Shall of His care partake. Languages: English Tune Title: ALBANO
